Julia + Derek’s Wedding | Hermitage Hills Farm and Stables

To be truthful, every time someone books us for anything, we’re kind of blown away.  It seems silly since this is our full time income and we stay booked, but we really are in awe that we get to do this for a living!  But when another photographer recommends us for a wedding?  Then we’re […]

Jacob + Mary Margaret | The Mill at Fine Creek, Powhatan, VA | Deluxe Highlight Film

Today’s post comes from Josh: You may or may not know this about me, but I tend to oversell things. I get really hyped up about something; I think it’s the best thing ever, and then everyone and their brother has to know about it. And, it isn’t just good, it’s usually “UNBELIEVABLE!” This is […]

Sarah + West | Hampton Roads Engagement Session on the James River

Sometimes I feel like I’m photographing movie stars.  For one, every couple I work with has this incredible chemistry.  I mean, they’re getting married, so I guess it’s expected, but it’s just so incredibly sweet!  But with Sarah + West, I felt like they were doing all the work and I was just hanging out […]

Courtney + Chris | The Vintager Inn Wedding, New Kent, Virginia

There’s something so sweet between Courtney + Chris.  They’re calm and relaxed, but know how to have a great time, and really enjoyed celebrating their wedding day with friends and family!  The Vintager Inn proved to be the perfect location with its large barn, since it drizzled their entire wedding day.  It’s so disheartening as a […]

Brittany + Fahd | Christopher Newport University Engagement Session

Can I make a confession?  Sometimes I still get a little bit nervous before a session.  It’s not often, but I just know that this is a very special day for each person in front of my lens.  Maybe it’s their wedding or engagement, or maybe they haven’t done professional photos in a year… or […]

Adoption Update | Personal

Back in January we shared some really big news… we fell in love with a sweet little boy and within hours started the adoption process.  You can read about it and watch our announcement video here. We haven’t updated a ton because, well, it’s pretty standard.  Tons of paperwork and so far we haven’t had any updates […]

Kim + Derrick | Yorktown Beach Engagement Session

Believe it or not, the engagement session is often our first time meeting a couple!  But with Kim + Derrick, that’s not the case for this power couple.   Derrick was one of the first people we met when we moved to Virginia 5.5 years ago and he quickly became a close friend.  In fact, […]
